This past Wednesday, Alexandra Daddario posted two striking images to Instagram. The 36-year-old actress took a skinny dip in an outdoor pool after removing all of her clothing. She included the phrase "Take a break from your concerns, Bob" from the 1991 movie "What About Bob?" as part of her caption. She is shown in one of the photos emerging from the water with only her back covered by the photographer's hand.
In the second picture, Alexandra was standing in the water with her legs submerged to her waist, her hair wet. In just a few hours, the post received more than 1 million likes from her 22.8 million followers. She recently discussed how her "True Detective" series nudity scene affected her career in an interview.
I have a lot of ideas about this, but for instance, I don't believe I was as aware of my sex appeal before 'True Detective' came out and I was showing up nude on the show, which was huge for my career and the phone started ringing and I got work. I made an effort not to take it seriously. In my heart, I'm just a theatre nerd, but I genuinely enjoy acting, so I said, "This is good for my career," and I accepted it.
